Does anyone remember this toy from the 80s/90s?

[Mumofanarchy]

I’ve been helping DD with her Christmas ideas this evening, she’s at such an awkward age where she thinks she’s too old for toys but is too young for grown up stuff.

She’s quite creative and I had a thought back to a creative kit I had back in the 80s/90s where you set little coloured pegs into a grid and once you’d completed the pattern you could flick a switch and it would light up!

Did I dream this? Is it a thing? I think she’d really like it... help

Lightsalive?

Oh oh that’s it! Amazing, how come they don’t make a more up to date version

I know what you mean, it was called lite brite.
I don’t know if you can’t still buy it but the questionable spelling always stuck in my head.

Oh you can! Jolly, that might just be the very thing, thank you!

Search Lite Brits on Amazon - loads!

You are very welcome.
Im glad my vast amount of knowledge of random nonsense from my childhood has gone to good use.

I’m totally buying one! It really has

Wow I’d completely forgotten about that game! I had one and I absolutely loved it. Seeing a picture of it on google has brought a tear to my eye,what a lovely trip down memory lane-thanks OP and the posters who knew what it was!

Wow. I'd totally forgot about those. Thanks for the memory OP. Gave me proper nystalgia for my childhood. X

Ah lights alive! I loved that!!!

I loved my lite brite!
Spelling also drove me mad, even as a child

I just look it up on camelcamwl and accidentally went to the us site and it's only $11 plus $ shipping - quite a bit cheaper than uk.

$8 shipping that should say.

Ooooh thank you! I've just bought for for my daughter 😂
